[Husker] Cousin Rich, the sequel

[jonlists at cbsol.com]

Why? is there something else more pressing? It's not like people are 
having a hard time in keeping up with the list. 

I think the guy made some points - why didn't we play the nickel more this 
year - which Jeff Volk responded to. 

Why was our defense ranked so poorly at the end of the year, it's 
finishing up stuff. Or do you just want to forget all of it?
